Apparently "Dick" thinks all games played at Staples are home games for the Lakers, LOL. I think he's butt hurt he's not playing for the Clippers.

Anybody notice for the first time ever we got to play Grizzlies/Bulls/Pacers style? Refs let us rough them up lol. Usually we are the ones getting shafted there with physicality. Now let us have the same freedom vs contenders.

I think Jamal will be alright. He's got to settle back in. If he can get back to his November numbers our bench will be in great shape. I love what he was doing in November:

15.7 points, 47% FG, 39% 3 PT...he was putting up some of his best numbers ever.

Those are great interviews, often they are pretty tedious and boring with whatever sportsman saying stock phrases. Not Blake and JJ. That vid made me happy. I haven't seen the game yet but by the sounds of it JJ came back like he was never out. AMAZING!!!!!!

I kinda like the Willy and the Poor Boys album cover. Just some guys putting on a show for some kids.

The songs are great too.

Actually I had a closer look and it is a great cover but is a bit small to appreciate it properly.

How great is it to have JJ back and back properly.

If you guys like CCR,check out the album Fogerty released last year,I think it is called A Song For Everyone. he teams up with others to redo many CCR songs (for example KId Rock on born on the bayou ) and it is outstanding.

glad to shut swaggy p up. by the way is anyone else here pissed that Clipper Darrell was wearing a Lakers swaggy p shirt?

Check out this quote from Saggy Nuts:

"This game's supposed to be fun and you're supposed to enjoy it. But to lose like that, that's embarrassing," said Lakers forward Nick Young. "It shouldn't happen, period. Shouldn't lose by 40 to nobody, especially at home against a team like the Clippers. That makes it worse.

"Can't let people just dunk and us and clown us without giving them a hard foul or even showing any emotion. Foul somebody. Get mad."

Sounding pretty tough through the media despite his soft play on the court. The real epitome of a fake tough guy.

Some dude on the Rant sports site wrote an article saying how the Clippers are struggling on offense since Paul's been out, claims we're averaging only 91.3 points a game. I thought, "What the hell?" I know that ain't right! We just scored 123 points against the Lakers. I calculated that we're basically scoring 107 a game since Paul went down. As near as I can tell, I think this dude was calculating the points put up by the losing team in the last 4 games...3 of those, of course, were the OTHER team, not the Clippers! Because those points seem to equal 91.25.

I think my favorite play was Blake's very last one. That ballhandling spin move and layup. If you look carefully on the Lakers bench, you see Sacre and Kobe look at each other after that moment and Kobe shakes his head.

On my way to starbucks this morning I was listening to 710 ESPN, and Mark Willard was going to raise an issue to Mychael Thompson and John Ireland. Thompson and Ireland were calling the game for the Lakers station and apparently at one point when the game got way out of control Thompson said somthing along the likes of "Doc needs to sit his starters." This conveyed the feeling that the Clippers were unecessarily rubbing the victory in by keeping the starters in longer than they needed to be in the game. Mark Willard said "for the amount of years that this (the Lakers)organization has brushed off the Clippers, for the amount of years they acted like the Clippers didn't even exist and now they want the Clippers to take it easy on them?"

I wanted to give Mark a high five he raised a good point. They treated us like garbage in the past and now they're getting their just due. Our time, our town

I also heard that. It sounded like Mychael Thompson was going to cry. Usually I don't like Willard, but it was good to hear him stick up for us on a Lakers station.

lol I guess not for Thompson. but this is good for their fans and organization. they have had silver spoons in their mouths their entire history this will humble them and hopefully make them better people. because as of now they still have that sense of entitlement and delusions about where their organization will be.

This is why I can't stand 710. All they ever talk about is the Lakers. It's usually just the same few story lines rehashed. At least Fox Sports Radio 570 tries to show some neutrality.

Lakers suddenly looking up to Clippers
By Dave McMenamin
LOS ANGELES -- Nick Young was born in Los Angeles on June 1, 1985, eight days before the Lakers won the first of six championships they would capture in his lifetime before Young graduated high school.
Over the same time period during Young's youth, the Los Angeles Clippers made the playoffs on only three occasions, winning a total of four games in those three first-round exits.
Coach Mike D'Antoni and the rest of the Lakers have had to defer to the Clippers this season and may have to follow the same path to rebuild.
It....

This has Doc's fingerprints all over it. Despite assembling a finess/shooting team we play solid defense

Why such the long break in the schedule? I'm glad we're getting a much needed rest after the tough schedule we've had so far, but I'm getting a little impatient waiting for the next game. Wednesday can't come soon enough.

The guys could use the rest. I want them to come out and bury Dallas early. Those first 2 games on the road trip won't be easy. NYK is on a streak and the Pacers... well, 'nuff said. At least after that, it lightens up for a few games. 5-2 would be good, 6-1 would be stellar.

Clips see progress since opener vs. Lakers
By Arash Markazi
LOS ANGELES -- Doc Rivers didn't mean it as a slight. He meant it as a matter of fact as he talked about the Los Angeles Lakers before Friday night's game against his Los Angeles Clippers.
"They're going to win eventually," Rivers said. "That's just the odds."
That might be true, but it wouldn't be Friday, and it certainly wouldn't be against the Clippers, who beat their city rivals 123-87 in a game the Clippers led by as many as 43 points in the fourth quarter.
It was the largest margin of victory the Clippers....
